The Pain...crunched my '95 525IT wagon...:( time to come back to the e30 :)

122k on the clock...only the good die young.

so, going to get go back to the 3 series world. Had a mint '88 325is that i drove and miss dearly. But i have noticed the world of clean unmolested e30's is becoming rarer and rarer.

Thus i come here for help. I am not in immediate need of a car, so i plan stashing a few extra grand and getting:

a nice clean '88-91 325is or a 318is...yet, part of me is thinking that I should go for a '95-'97 e36 M3

Tell me the good, the bad, the ugly...or just point me to the light and show me the error of my ways and why i shouldn't m3...that is the question...

I am all ears.

Everything in this world of BMW is ugly.

Hmmmm.. You need a r3v welcoming..

You should get a shitty old Camry and not have to worry about your automobile and fixing it and how you look in public. It will save you time and heartache. Plus, if you get in a wreck you wouldn't feel bad still driving it with a cracked radiator and no hood.

i love my '95 M3... but not as much as my slow ass E30.

hmmmm...ever been on the HAMB?...so far this place seems pretty tame. All I got told so far was to buy a Camry, ouch...that hurt, maybe I should run home. :D

I am pretty up on the e30 (though still a lot to learn) and really enjoyed the hell out of it. Infact I liked it so much I loaned it to a good friend for a long time and he fell for them too.

...the search function is my friend, right...unless the truth really is, that there is no comparison and it is like blondes vs. redheads.

look at the bright side, you already have a donor car for a 24v swap in the e30!!!

I need some interior parts for my e34touring. rear passenger seat belt tensioner and some other misc stuff, Let me know if you are willing to sell anything out of your car.
